This months Trail magazine - Dan joins us for his ML assessment. In the shops now.

Hi, and thanks for visiting ExpeditionGuide.com

We are now in our winter season until April, making the most of the snow and ice that bring that extra wow factor to the mountains. Our winter is spent teaching winter skills, snowshoeing, winter mountaineering, winter climbing, avalanche avoidance courses and ski mountaineering in Scotland, Morocco, The Alps, Norway and here at home in Snowdonia.

"Rob is the definition of the calm professional in an environment that is anything but. He is a walking encyclopaedia of the mountains, and the techniques used to master them for the furthering of your own life story. And he inspires trust by being the safe pair of hands from which you can learn how to make yours steady in the most beautiful and dramatic places in the world – not least North Wales! Trail and its tens of thousands of readers trust him: you should too."Simon Ingram, Editor, Trail Magazine

Throughout the year I run a range of navigation, hillwalking, mountaineering, scrambling and climbing courses & expeditions to educate, motivate and inspire. I run most of the courses myself with one or two other instructors who are regular faces, highly qualified and good friends of mine.

I provide Mountain Leader Training and Assessment courses as an approved provider and course director for Mountain Training Cymru here in North Wales as well as mountain skills training & expeditions for individuals or groups on open courses or as private guiding.

My aim is to help you become self sufficient and self reliant in the mountains and on the crags in summer or winter and to help trainee leaders develop a career in the mountains.

I live in Snowdonia with my wife (Kate) and four children and run most of my courses here. I make my full time living in the mountains and spend most of my free time in them too, either climbing with friends or out with the Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team. In addition I run trips to the Isle of Skye, the Alps, Norway, Spain and the Himalaya.
